  • Rouen Revisited
    105 Chapter 8 Rouen Revisited 8.1 Overview This chapter describes Rouen Revisited, an interactive art installation that uses the tech- niques presented in this thesis to interpret the series of Claude Monet's paintings of the Rouen Cathe- dral in the context of the actual architecture. The chapter ®rst presents the artistic description of the work from the SIGGRAPH '96 visual proceedings, and then gives a technical description of how the artwork was created. 8.2 Artistic description This section presents the description of the Rouen Revisited art installation originally writ- ten by Golan Levin and Paul Debevec for the SIGGRAPH'96 visual proceedings and expanded for the Rouen Revisited web site. 106 Rouen Revisited Between 1892 and 1894, the French Impressionist Claude Monet produced nearly 30 oil paintings of the main facËade of the Rouen Cathedral in Normandy (see Fig. 8.1). Fascinated by the play of light and atmosphere over the Gothic church, Monet systemat- ically painted the cathedral at different times of day, from slightly different angles, and in varied weather conditions. Each painting, quickly executed, offers a glimpse into a narrow slice of time and mood. The Rouen Revisited interactive art installation aims to widen these slices, extending and connecting the dots occupied by Monet's paintings in the multidimensional space of turn-of-the-century Rouen. In Rouen Revisited, we present an interactive kiosk in which users are invited to explore the facËade of the Rouen Cathedral, as Monet might have painted it, from any angle, time of day, and degree of atmospheric haze.

  • The Digital Nature of Gothic
    The Digital Nature of Gothic Lars Spuybroek Ruskin’s The Nature of Gothic is inarguably the best-known book on Gothic architecture ever published; argumentative, persuasive, passionate, it’s a text influential enough to have empowered a whole movement, which Ruskin distanced himself from on more than one occasion. Strangely enough, given that the chapter we are speaking of is the most important in the second volume of The Stones of Venice, it has nothing to do with the Venetian Gothic at all. Rather, it discusses a northern Gothic with which Ruskin himself had an ambiguous relationship all his life, sometimes calling it the noblest form of Gothic, sometimes the lowest, depending on which detail, transept or portal he was looking at. These are some of the reasons why this chapter has so often been published separately in book form, becoming a mini-bible for all true believers, among them William Morris, who wrote the introduction for the book when he published it First Page of John Ruskin’s “The with his own Kelmscott Press. It is a precious little book, made with so much love and Nature of Gothic: a chapter of The Stones of Venice” (Kelmscott care that one hardly dares read it. Press, 1892). Like its theoretical number-one enemy, classicism, the Gothic has protagonists who write like partisans in an especially ferocious army. They are not your usual historians – the Gothic hasn’t been able to attract a significant number of the best historians; it has no Gombrich, Wölfflin or Wittkower, nobody of such caliber – but a series of hybrid and atypical historians such as Pugin and Worringer who have tried again and again, like Ruskin, to create a Gothic for the present, in whatever form: revivalist, expressionist, or, as in my case, digitalist, if that is a word.

  • Vincent Van Gogh
    What is the price of a painting? F$160 millions (16 years ago) Is this a free market competitive price? by Vincent Van Gogh 1 Vincent Van Gogh (1853 to 1890) From a website devoted to his works: The son of a Dutch pastor, brought up in a religious and cultured atmosphere, Vincent was highly emotional and lacked self-confidence. Between 1860 and 1880, when he finally decided to become an artist, van Gogh had two unhappy romances, worked unsuccessfully as a clerk in a bookstore, an art salesman, and a preacher in the Borinage (a mining district in Belgium), where he was dismissed for “overzealousness”. He remained in Belgium to study art. The works of his early Dutch period are somber-toned, sharply lit, genre paintings of which the most famous is "The Potato Eaters" (1885). In that year van Gogh went to Antwerp where he discovered the works of Rubens and purchased many Japanese prints. 2 His life In 1886 he went to Paris to join his brother Théo, the manager of Goupil's gallery. In Paris, van Gogh studied with Cormon, inevitably met Pissarro, Monet, and Gauguin, and began to lighten his very dark palette and to paint in the short brushstrokes of the Impressionists. His nervous temperament made him a difficult companion and night-long discussions combined with painting all day undermined his health. He decided to go south to Arles where he hoped his friends would join him and help found a school of art. Gauguin did join him but with disastrous results. In a fit of epilepsy, van Gogh pursued his friend with an open razor, was stopped by Gauguin, but ended up cutting a portion of his ear lobe off.

Critical and Popular Reaction to Ibsen in England: 1872-1906 by Tracy Cecile Davis Thesis supervisors: Dr. Richard Beacham Prof. Michael R. Booth Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, University of Warwick, Department of Theatre Studies. August, 1984. ABSTRACT This study of Ibsen in England is divided into three sections. The first section chronicles Ibsen-related events between 1872, when his work was first introduced to a Briton, and 1888, when growing interest in the 'higher drama' culminated in a truly popular edition of three of Ibsen's plays. During these early years, knowledge about and appreciation of Ibsen's work was limited to a fairly small number of intellectuals and critics. A matinee performance in 1880 attracted praise, but successive productions were bowdlerized adaptations. Until 1889, when the British professional premiere of A Doll's House set all of London talking, the lack of interest among actors and producers placed the responsibility for eliciting interest in Ibsen on translators, lecturers, and essayists. The controversy initiated by A Doll's House was intensified in 1891, the so-called Ibsen Year, when six productions, numerous new translations, debates, lectures, published and acted parodies, and countless articles considered the value and desirability of Ibsen's startling modern plays.

  • Van Gogh: Into the Undergrowth Cincinnati Art Museum 15 October 2016–8 January 2017
    Van Gogh: Into the Undergrowth Cincinnati Art Museum 15 October 2016–8 January 2017 Catalogue Van Gogh: Into the Undergrowth. Cornelia Homburg, Simon Kelly, and Laura Prins. London: D. Giles Ltd., 2016. 160 pp.; 86 color illustrations; artist biographies; bibliography. $45.00 ISBN: 1907804846 The three students’ reviews presented here dissect the multiple ways the curators of Van Gogh: Into the Undergrowth worked to tell a new narrative about the familiar life and art of this canonical artist via the works of art; the object labels and exhibition texts; and the beautifully illustrated and accessibly written catalogue. Each student-author reflects on the formulation and perpetuation of narratives in art history and considers the exhibition as a text, while developing her own perspective and voice in our field. First Student Review The mythology around the name “Vincent van Gogh” remains powerful enough to draw crowds to a museum—a reality relied on by the Cincinnati Art Museum in its curation of Van Gogh: Into the Undergrowth. Cincinnati attempted to acknowledge the myths surrounding the art and life of van Gogh, working to debunk the persistent image of him as a tortured artist. Rather than repeat those myths, the Cincinnati curatorial team looked to his work and that of his predecessors and contemporaries in order to provide a new lens through which to see the evolution of nineteenth-century artistic movements and techniques. In the foreword to the short but detailed exhibition catalogue, Cameron Kitchin, the museum’s director, writes that the curators intended “to contextualize a less-examined body of van Gogh’s work and thereby to deepen our understanding of the artist” (97).

    Works Cited Primary Sources Antonio, Pietro. Exposition au Salon du Louvre en 1787. 1787. Engraving. There are various accounts about how crammed the Salon de Paris was or how boring, but none of them can quite encompass the head-to-toe art lining the walls or the ladies and their fans. This simple engraving brought an event that was hated by some and adored by others to life in my head. Because I could envision what the Impressionist Exhibitions were not, I could also envision what they were because there are no descriptive records of that. Caillebotte, Gustave. Rue de Paris: Temps de pluie. 1877. The Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago. The Art Institute of Chicago. Web. 15 Feb. 2016. <http://www.artic.edu/aic/collections/artwork/20684>. Through this source I learned about art critics' favorite painting at the Third Impressionist Exhibition. They believed that Caillebotte, who was the creator of this exhibition, was not actually an Impressionist. His work was some of the ones with less visible brush strokes and more defined lines. That being said, he was the organizer of the Third Impressionist Exhibition and referred to himself as an "Impressionist." The Catalogue of the Second Impressionist Art Exhibition. 1876. The Tate. Web. <http://www2.tate.org.uk/archivejourneys/bloomsburyhtml/images/artistlist_spi.jpg>. This helped me to see the variety of the Second Impressionist Exhibition.
